Indonesia was one of the countries that came to mind because my grandmother was born and raised in Indonesia. I looked at information for all of the countries that I was considering. In doing so, I learned that Indonesia is a fabulous place for tourism, as there are many tourist attractions. Indonesia is a beautiful country and would be fabulous for a tourism business. - 3 - Shawna Neilson Indonesia Geography Indonesia is an island country consisting of over 13,000 islands. 6,000 of these islands are inhabited. Although the overall land area is only 1,192,608 square miles (1,919,317 square kilometers), it would be easy to establish a franchise throughout this island country. Indonesia can be found north of Australia and South of the Philippines and Malaysia. The easiest methods for product distribution between islands would be either ship or aircraft. Within each island, products can be distributed by land or aircraft. There are many distribution methods available based upon the location of distribution points. It would be easy to transport products to other countries such as Thailand, Malaysia, Australia, the Philippines, as well as China, Japan, and many others because these countries are fairly close and the waterways offer an easy travel route. One of the down sides Indonesia being an island country is that there would be some distance between locations on different islands. Overall, the location could serve useful in product distribution. Rainfall is the most variable aspect of Indonesia’s climate. Since the country is surrounded by warm waters, temperatures remain fairly constant with a high humidity. Throughout the country, temperatures range from approximately 73˚F to 82˚F. Indonesia is mostly tropical because it is divided by the equator. The tropical climate would be good for setting up a business in tourism. For the most part, winds are moderate and tend to be predictable. Unfortunately, monsoons are fairly regular. During June through September, they can be expected to blow in from the south and east. During December through March, they can be expected to come from the northwest. Although storms can be serious, they are dealt with frequently and therefore precautions can be taken to prevent damage. Indonesia’s islands follow a similar pattern in relation to topography. The larger islands have lowlands and costal plains that surround central mountain ranges. Indonesia has over 100 volcanoes, some active others inactive. Rich volcanic soil is carried down from volcanic slopes by rivers and into the lowlands and costal plains. For this reason, rich volcanic soil is predominate in Indonesia. Due to this, Indonesia is strong agriculturally. Also, Indonesia has many mineral deposits, which provides for excellent mining. Indonesia’s petroleum deposits has allowed for the country to be one of the leading petroleum producers. - 4 - Shawna Neilson Indonesia Overall, this archipelago country is surrounded by warm waters and has a tropical climate. The larger islands are characterized by central mountain ranges rising from lowlands and coastal plains. There are many volcanoes and the soil is very fertile. Indonesia has many mineral and petroleum deposits. This island country would be great for establishing a franchise. There could be business locations scattered amongst the islands. The tropical climate is great for a tourism business. Economic Analysis Socialism The government plays a significant role in the Indonesian economy, therefore making it socialist. The government does not regulate prices on all goods, but it does on some such as fuel, rice, and electricity. Starting in the 1980s, the government began removing some economic regulations in hope of stimulating employment and growth, mainly in the non- oil export sector. Throughout the last few years, Indonesia has been able to maintain a fairly steady economy and has weathered the global crisis with some level of ease. Even through the financial crisis, Indonesia has been able to maintain GDP growth. Non-Renewable Resources Crude Oil – Unrefined petroleum taken from the ground, it is refined and used for fuel. Crude oil is Indonesia’s largest export commodity. Natural Gas – Combustible substance that is formed in rocks, it is used for fuel and also one of Indonesia’s top export commodities. Bauxite – Claylike mineral containing aluminum Silver – Mineral that is commonly used for jewelry, coins, electronics, and photography Tin – Metallic mineral mainly used to coat other metals in order to prevent corrosion. Copper – Reddish brown, metallic mineral that is a great conductor of heat and electricity. It is commonly used in electrical wires, water pipes, and to make corrosion resistant parts.

    IUCN/Species Survival Commission Conservation Communications Fund Contributors In 1992, IUCN’s Species Survival Commission (SSC) established the Conservation Communications Fund to garner support for its expansive Publications Programme which promotes conservation by: (1) providing objective scientific information about biodiversity, habitats, and ecosystems; (2) identifying high priority actions for conservation; and (3) delivering the information and recommendations to natural resource managers, decision-makers, and others whose actions affect the conservation of biodiversity. The SSC’s Action Plans, occasional papers, news magazine Species, Membership Directory, and other publications are supported by a wide variety of generous donors including: The Sultanate of Oman established the Peter Scott IUCN/SSC Action Plan Fund in 1990. The Fund supports Action Plan development and implementation; to date, more than 80 grants have been made from the Fund to Specialist Groups. As a result, the Action Plan Programme has progressed at an accelerated level and the network has grown and matured significantly. The SSC is grateful to the Sultanate of Oman for its confidence in and support for species conservation worldwide. The Chicago Zoological Society (CZS) provides significant in-kind and cash support to the SSC, including grants for special projects, editorial and design services, staff secondments and related support services. The mission of CZS is to help people develop a sustainable and harmonious relationship with nature. The Zoo carries out its mission by informing and inspiring 2,000,000 annual visitors, serving as a refuge for species threatened with extinction, developing scientific approaches to manage species successfully in zoos and the wild, and working with other zoos, agencies, and protected areas around the world to conserve habitats and wildlife.

  • A LINGUISTIC ANALYSIS Susi Herti Afriani School
    Journal of Malay Islamic Studies Vol. 3 No. 1 June 2019 KELAKAR BETHOOK IN PALEMBANG MALAY LANGUAGE: A LINGUISTIC ANALYSIS Susi Herti Afriani School of Humanities and Communication Arts Western Sydney University, Australia Email: [email protected] Abstract This paper examines distinctive culturally-linguistic humour and directives in Palembang Malay language (hereafter referred as Palembangnese) in Indonesia. Two transcribed samples of Kelakar Bethook (KB) in Palembangnese humour were selected. The data analyses and discussion show the uniqueness of humour and directives in KB in Palembangnese. This present research contributes to the nature of linguistics in language documentation and extends the scope of speech act research in a non-western language. This study also contributes to enhancing the linguistic-cultural theory in Eastern language and culture. This research thereby contributes to distinguishing one facet of language Malay civilization by exploring distinctive cultural-linguistic practices and promoting a wider awareness of Palembangnese culture and humour. Keywords: affective-face theory, cultural-linguistic practices, directives, humour, Kelakar Bethook, Palembang Malay language. Introduction Humour and directives are two widely used communication tools in society. Palembang Malay language (hereafter Palembangnese) is a language spoken on the island of Sumatera in Indonesia. Humour plays an important role in the Palembang community and in the Palembangnese is defined as kelakar which means a joke. “Jokes refer to humorous utterances in general” (Tsakona, 2017, p. 490). Previous studies in Palembangnese have investigated Palembangnese from morphology, phonology, syntaxis, semantics and sociolinguistics analysis (Amalia & Ramlan, 2002; Dungcik, 2017; Muhidin, 2018; Oktovianny, 2004; Purnama, 2008). However, no research has investigated Palembangnese humour and directives at the level of a discourse analysis.

  • Types and Functions of Reduplication in Palembang
    Journal of the Southeast Asian Linguistics Society JSEALS 12.1 (2019): 113-142 ISSN: 1836-6821, DOI: http://hdl.handle.net/10524/52447 University of Hawaiʼi Press TYPES AND FUNCTIONS OF REDUPLICATION IN PALEMBANG Mardheya Alsamadani & Samar Taibah Wayne State University [email protected] & [email protected] Abstract In this paper, we study the morphosemantic aspects of reduplication in Palembang (also known as Musi). In Palembang, both content and function words undergo reduplication, generating a wide variety of semantic functions, such as pluralization, iteration, distribution, and nominalization. Productive reduplication includes full reduplication and reduplication plus affixation, while fossilized reduplication includes partial reduplication and rhyming reduplication. We employed the Distributed Morphology theory (DM) (Halle and Marantz 1993, 1994) to account for these different patterns of reduplication. Moreover, we compared the functions of Palembang reduplication to those of Malay and Indonesian reduplication. Some instances of function word reduplication in Palembang were not found in these languages, such as reduplication of question words and reduplication of negators. In addition, Palembang partial reduplication is fossilized, with only a few examples collected. In contrast, Malay partial reduplication is productive and utilized to create new words, especially words borrowed from English (Ahmad 2005). Keywords: Reduplication, affixation, Palembang/Musi, morphosemantics ISO 639-3 codes: mui 1 Introduction This paper has three purposes. The first is to document the reduplication patterns found in Palembang based on the data collected from three Palembang native speakers. Second, we aim to illustrate some shared features of Palembang reduplication with those found in other Malayic languages such as Indonesian and Malay. The third purpose is to provide a formal analysis of Palembang reduplication based on the Distributed Morphology Theory.
